Paperback. Zustand: Good. How can a politically disabled nation create a history for itself? James Campbell sets out across Scotland to answer his own question. From the bustle of the Edinburgh Festival and the sleaziness of Sin City Aberdeen to the depopulated Highlands (the last great European wilderness), a history of thoughts, fears, and aspirations evolves from his conversations with the local inhabitants. The Invisible Country is seen in different ways by the people he meets: in the Big Idea of Scottish Independence, the romanticism of the English lairds, the money-spinning talk of the oil troubleshooters, and the grim resentfulness of the South Western-Islanders. In many ways the book is a disturbing account of a country which was described by Edwin Muir as becoming lost to history. But Campbell's observations, always thoughtful and pertinent, reveal not only the despair but also the humor and strength at the heart of a Scotland which, though very real, cannot always be seen.…

Paperback. Zustand: Good. Colby was a 13-year-old city boy on his first hunting trip. He was half-frozen and hadn't seen a single deer, but those trifles were far from his mind. Instead, he found himself rapt by a rifle-toting country girl named Aubrey Reece. The two felt an immediate bond and would become high school sweethearts, but what they didn't know was, after years of separation, they'd have to rely on their bond to save themselves--and the world as they know it. After spending thirty years in Canada, Colby moves back to Georgia where he reluctantly yearns to reconnect with Aubrey, who works in the town's antiques market. But, just as they rekindle their young love, Aubrey disappears after accepting a role in a local film production and finds herself caught in the machinations of an underground society trying to alter the course of human evolution. At every turn, this intricate thriller sidesteps expectations and subverts the genre's norms. Aubrey and Colby fight to reunite, save the planet, and answer life's most perplexing question: Can love conquer all.…

Hardback. Zustand: Fair. The powerful and affirming story of a father s journey with his teenage daughter to the far reaches of Alaska Alaska s Arctic National Wildlife Refuge, home to only a handful of people, is a harsh and lonely place. So when James Campbell s cousin Heimo Korth asked him to spend a summer building a cabin in the rugged Interior, Campbell hesitated about inviting his fifteen-year-old daughter, Aidan, to join him: Would she be able to withstand clouds of mosquitoes, the threat of grizzlies, bathing in an ice-cold river, and hours of grueling labor, peeling and hauling logs? But once there, Aidan embraced the wild. She even agreed to return a few months later to help the Korths work their traplines and hunt for caribou and moose. Despite windchills of 50 degrees below zero, father and daughter ventured out daily to track, hunt, and trap. Under the supervision of Edna, Heimo s Yupik Eskimo wife, Aidan grew more confident in the woods. Campbell knew that in traditional Eskimo cultures, some daughters earned a rite of passage usually reserved for young men. So he decided to take Aidan back to Alaska one final time before she left home. It would be their third and most ambitious trip, backpacking over Alaska s Brooks Range to the headwaters of the mighty Hulahula River, where they would assemble a folding canoe and paddle to the Arctic Ocean. The journey would test them, and their relationship, in one of the planet s most remote places: a land of wolves, musk oxen, Dall sheep, golden eagles, and polar bears. At turns poignant and humorous, Braving It is an ode to America s disappearing wilderness and a profound meditation on what it means for a child to grow up and a parent to finally, fully let go.…

Hardback. Zustand: Fair. The inspiration for The Last Alaskans--the eight-part documentary series on the Discovery Channel Called one of] the greatest life-or-death-tales ever told (Esquire), James Campbell's inimitable insider account of a family's nomadic life in the unshaped Arctic wilderness is an icily gripping, intimate profile that stands up well beside Krakauer's classic Into the Wild], and it stands too, as a kind of testament to the rough beauty of improbably wild dreams (Men's Journal). Hundreds of hardy people have tried to carve a living in the Alaskan bush, but few have succeeded as consistently as Heimo Korth. Originally from Wisconsin, Heimo traveled to the Arctic wilderness in his feverous twenties. Now, more than three decades later, Heimo lives with his wife and two daughters approximately 200 miles from civilization--a sustainable, nomadic life bounded by the migrating caribou, the dangers of swollen rivers, and by the very exigencies of daily existence. In The Final Frontiersman, Heimo's cousin James Campbell chronicles the Korth family's amazing experience, their adventures, and the tragedy that continues to shape their lives. With a deft voice and in spectacular, at times unimaginable detail, Campbell invites us into Heimo's heartland and home. The Korths wait patiently for a small plane to deliver their provisions, listen to distant chatter on the radio, and go sledding at 44 below zero--all the while cultivating the hard-learned survival skills that stand between them and a terrible fate. Awe-inspiring and memorable, The Final Frontiersman reads like a rustic version of the American Dream and reveals for the first time a life undreamed by most of us: amid encroaching environmental pressures, apart from the herd, and alone in a stunning wilderness that for now, at least, remains the final frontier.…
